FISH for HOPE: Malaria...!
http://fishforhope.blogspot.com/2014/03/malaria.html
Aquaculture in poverty alleviation. Friday, March 14, 2014. Not that I would ever go looking to be deliberately infected with a potentially crippling and possibly lethal infection, but I consider it a privilege to have had this experience.

So, easy for me to say that having malaria is a privilege, right? I don't presume to think that we should lower ou...

FISH for HOPE: Women in Rural Aquaculture - Understanding Why
http://fishforhope.blogspot.com/2014/06/include-women-in-rural-aquaculture.html
Aquaculture in poverty alleviation. Sunday, June 1, 2014. Women in Rural Aquaculture - Understanding Why. They've purchased a new bicycle or radio, in some cases.
